Equipment Reliability Engineer (Starship) SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal ofenabling human life on Mars.EQUIPMENT RELIABILITY ENGINEER (STARSHIP)As Starship production continues to push new bounds in order to satisfy the growing demands of the space industry, the complex and ever-evolving critical equipment required to build, integrate, and test our products must work harder than ever. Equipment Reliability Engineers hold the keys to the production machine; they not only help identify some of the most risk-heavy SpaceX production assets, but they technically diagnose, advise, implement, and execute a strategic path forward at the equipment-level to promote system reliability, minimize losses, and maximize critical asset efficiencies.RESPONSIBILITIES:Own equipment improvement plans for maintenance strategies and equipment availability to maximize production equipment availabilityDefine, develop, and refine equipment reliability programs that include:Preventive maintenance tasks performed by machine operators and experienced maintenance techniciansComprehensive BOM development and selection of critical spare partsIntegration of existing equipment into SpaceX Internet of Things (IoT) to enable real time performance monitoringDesign and integration of new sensors onto machines to set predictive and condition-based monitoring triggersDevelop engineering solutions to repetitive or high consequence failures on critical equipment through Root Cause Analysis (RCA)Conduct Failure Mode Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA) to create proactive reliability programs for critical equipmentCoordinate cross-functionally to drive process improvements, design iterations and complete equipment overhaulsIntegrate with internal tooling, automation and production teams to ensure maintainability of design is incorporated into new internally designed equipmentDevelop and implement maintenance and reliability Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to drive equipment improvements and organizational efficiencySupport onboarding and commissioning of newly purchased or fabricated equipment; release reliability programs prior to equipment entering productionProvide technical support to production, maintenance management and technical personnelManage production requests for asset improvements and data collectionBASIC QUALIFICATIONS:Bachelor's degree in an engineering discipline1+ years of experience in manufacturing, reliability, or operationsPREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:5+ years of experience in a maintenance engineering role and reliability in a high-volume manufacturing, testing or operational environmentHands-on experience with equipment control systems, machinery, tooling and industrial automationDeveloped understanding of mechanical, fluid, and electrical component functionsExperience using Microsoft SQL and PowerBIAbility to read and understand equipment schematics, P&ID, GD&T and OEM manualsFamiliarity with aerospace manufacturing and test equipment; CNC, SMT, 3D printing, robotics, tooling, furnaces, chillers, etc.Experience working with CMMS programs such as Maximo, SAP, InforBasic understanding of maintenance and reliability KPIs; OEE, MTBF, MTTRCritical thinking and problem-solving skillsDetail oriented, organized, and able to demonstrate a high sense of urgencyADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:Provide 24/7 on-call support for all critical activities and emergency situationsStand: Up to 6 hours per daySit: Up to 3 hoursper dayPush/Pull: Up to 50lbs.
